New research simulates power demand, supply, and cost in a hotter, drier climate.

A new fitness tracker that’s very much like a ‘Fitbit for fish’ is revealing new information about fish health and behavior.

COVID-19 changed when and where we use electricity. Researchers showed that commonly available total demand data masked the actual changes.

Recognizing how innovation and clean technologies at the very edge of the grid can work together to transition the electricity system, PNNL takes a multidisciplinary approach to advancing and integrating renewable energy solutions.

A unique data set following Chinook salmon as they negotiate hydroelectric dams on the Columbia River is now available to researchers worldwide.

COVID-19 had multiple impacts on the electric sector and the nature of those impacts varied on the scale analyzed.

A new PNNL study quantifies hydropower's contribution to grid stability. When other power sources go out, hydropower can ramp up, recoup shortfalls, and stabilize the grid nearly instantaneously.

Reimagining the United States power grid could save consumers $50 billion a year.

With an eye on renewable, accessible, and resilient power, PNNL researchers show hyper-local microgrids are a viable option, if designed with the right mix of sources.

Electrical engineer Aditya Ashok and cybersecurity researcher Thomas Edgar win best paper award for their work to create a new high-fidelity dataset that will help advance cybersecurity solutions for critical infrastructure protection.

Free, publicly available tool to help estimate value of pumped storage hydropower project services.

Artificial intelligence-based decision tool enables grid operators to respond more quickly and effectively to grid emergencies.

PNNL has received 119 R&D 100 Awards since 1969, when the laboratory began submitting entries in the contest that recognizes top 100 inventions each year.

With a focus on prevention, PNNL researchers are working to predict droughts, enhance grid resilience, and manage forests to reduce wildfire.

PNNL scientists developed a new, tiny battery and tag to track younger, smaller species, to evaluate behavior and estimate survival during downstream migration.

Grid Forward, an industry association dedicated to promoting and accelerating innovation in the regional electric system, honored PNNL's Carl Imhoff with the 2021 Grid Innovator Award.

New software aids in modernizing the nation's irrigation systems.

Alison Colotelo, senior research scientist and project manager, has been selected for the Hydropower Foundation advisory board.

PNNL is developing the Digital Twins for Hydropower framework to help the industry to affordably modernize the aging hydropower fleet.

PNNL has released the first version of ExaGO, an open-source grid modeling software that can take advantage of emerging heterogeneous computing architecture to help grid operators plan ahead for extreme events.
